Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair. 1st Edition. Charles R. Garry, was a fiery lawyer who became known for representing Black Panthers and antiwar protesters and who escaped the 1978 mass murder and suicide at Jonestown, Guyana, his 1977 autobiography was titled "Streetfighter in the Courtroom" Mr. Garry was born Garabed Robutlay Garabedian on March 17, 1909, in Bridgewater, Mass., of Armenian parents who had emigrated from Turkey. From the age of 4, he was reared in the rural California town of Selma in the San Joaquin Valley, where the discrimination he suffered for being Armenian helped shape him into a fighter for the disenfranchised.'I Could Handle My Dukes' In a 1969 interview with The New York Times, Mr. Garry said that by the time he finished grammar school he had been subjected to so many ethnic slurs that ended in fistfights that "I could handle my dukes and I could lick my weight in wildcats." When the family's small farm went bankrupt, Mr. Garry temporarily dropped out of high school and became the sole support, suffering lead poisoning working in an auto factory. After graduating from high school, he worked in a cannery, married and then attended the San Francisco College of Law at night while running a small dry cleaning shop. He was admitted to the bar in 1938. While still in law school, Mr. Garry was active in a general strike that gripped San Francisco in 1934, and his first clients after graduation were labor unions. He worked as a volunteer in Upton Sinclair's unsuccessful campaign for governor of California and served in the Army. In 1957, he was called before the House Un-American Activities Committee and refused to testify on Fifth Amendment grounds. But it was in the 1960's, when he began defending the Black Panthers, that he became one of the country's best-known radical lawyers. He first became involved with the Black Panthers in 1967, when he was persuaded to represent Huey P. Newton, one of the party's founders, on murder charges stemming from a shootout in which a police officer was killed and Mr. Newton wounded. Mr. Newton was convicted of a lesser charge of manslaughter. In 1969, Mr. Garry was scheduled to represent Bobby Seale in the trial of the Chicago Seven, a group of young political activists who were accused of plotting disruptions at the 1968 Democratic National Convention, in Chicago. When an illness forced Mr. Garry to withdraw from the case and Mr. Seale refused to be tried without his representation, Mr. Seale was ordered bound and gagged in the courtroom. He also defended Inez Garcia, a 30-year-old agricultural worker and wife of an imprisoned anti-Castro Cuban dissident, who had been raped. Half an hour after the attack, the two men involved had threatened that "worse" would happen if she did not leave town. Garcia went after them with a rifle, killed the hefty man who had held her down, missing the actual rapist. She was arrested and charged with murder "back jacket tear, name inside otherwise very good".
